A Dawson Springs woman is facing animal cruelty charges after she was arrested Friday afternoon by the Lyon County Sheriff’s Department.
Sheriff Brent White reports arresting 34-year old Alisha M. Clark around 4:00 Friday after the sheriff’s office received a complaint from concerned citizens who had located puppies that were abandoned near the Cumberland River in a very rural portion of Lyon County. After investigating the complaint, Sheriff White found that Clark was the person who abandoned multiple animals at the location.
Sheriff White says Clark was arrested and charged with Cruelty to Animals-2nd Degree. She was lodged in the Crittenden County Detention Center.
